Slightly Stoopid (album)
''Slightly $toopid'' is the first full-length album by Slightly Stoopid and was released in 1996 on Skunk Records. On the original 1996 Skunk Records print, the CD included two hidden tracks after "To a Party." The first hidden song is "Prophet" with the late Bradley Nowell of Sublime playing bass. The second hidden song is "Marley Medley" which contains "Guava Jelly" and " This Train," both Bob Marley covers. The printing was very limited at an estimated 1000 copies. Since the original prints were made before Slightly Stoopid were well known, they are rare and hard to come by. Original prints used to sell on eBay consistently at around $300 because of its out of print status and the demand for the hidden track with Bradley Nowell. It was out of print for 10 years and in 2006 was re-released together with their second album ''Longest Barrel Ride'' as a double album. Both albums were out of print. Track listing *"To a Party" contains two hidden tracks - "Prophet" and "Marley M ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

This Train
"This Train", also known as "This Train Is Bound for Glory", is a traditional American gospel song first recorded in 1922. Although its origins are unknown, the song was relatively popular during the 1920s as a religious tune, and it became a gospel hit in the late 1930s for singer-guitarist Sister Rosetta Tharpe. After switching from acoustic to electric guitar, Tharpe released a more secular version of the song in the early 1950s. The song's popularity was also due in part to the influence of folklorists John A. Lomax and Alan Lomax, who discovered the song while making field recordings in the American South in the early 1930s and included it in folk song anthologies that were published in 1934 and 1960. These anthologies brought the song to the attention of an even broader audience during the folk music revival of the 1950s and 1960s. Another song, called "The Crawdad Song", uses the same melody. Early history The earliest known example of "This Train" is a recording by Florida ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
